yummy ! the picture itself is unquestionably delicious ……. i’m a boholano living in bohol and no doubt broa is one that bohol could boast to the world and the universe( char!… it is somewhat exaggerated.hehehe)even though there are other provinces in the philippines making this cute product… hmmm… do you know what’s the major difference between bohol’s broa and its counterparts? …of course these broas are made in bohol.(duh! im getting corny…as always.hehehe).
people, please try peanut kisses ( i know that bacolod and other places in the country have this also) but with a twist…. hmmm. try eating it having calamay as dippings…nyam nyam nyam ! ow see? its authentically boholano ……
oops correction, theres no such word as BAJOT in bohol its BAYOT……. hmmmmm….. thats an example of over labeling that boholanos are J speakers ( J speakers because we change tht letter y of cebuano words with J but not all words, and BAYOT is an evidence to that..)
ey, mga SANO !( pronounce the O very hard just like how boholanos do it.hehehe. SANO is equevalent to cebu’s BAI but sad to say its a dying term, are totally dead,i don’t know….
people, visit bohol!the province is getting better…. one of the finest in the country.char!

hi joylet, yes, the broas from Osang’s behind the Baclayon church are superb. My family has been going to them for 40+ years! I have several related posts on them in the archives…yes, will look for the peanut macaroons the next time I am there…

Hi Marketman!
I just read this post and it is rather timely, as I just came from Bohol. Crissy is right. The broas you can buy near Baclayon (it’s located at the back of the Church’s compound actually) are really good! Also, if you have time, sorry for the *shameless plug* but I am really proud of this family heritage.. Please do try the Peanut Macaroons from Bohol. It uses the same recipe..actually the ORIGINAL recipe of the Peanut Kisses (my lola invented that)…as the Peanut Kisses now are commercialized (it’s a long story…) My Tita makes the Peanut Macaroons straight out of her kitchen, site to where the first Peanut Kisses were manufactured :) Drop me and email and I’ll give you her contact number should you wish to grab your hands on some original Boholano delicacies :)

Lechonero, crush some pure tablea, mix it with melted butter until like very thick chocolate. Add lots of sugar then stir in cream while over low heat until nice and thick. Do not boil. Start with a small batch until you like the taste, sweetness, thickness. Otherwise, use non-tablea chocolate instead, chopped up and cream or milk added to it until thick. Cool a bit until spreadable… Mrs. Kookie, the place is called Osang’s broas, behind the Baclayon church, I have a precious post on the broas, I think.
